I have used IntelliJ Idea on a few projects and I really like the feature it has in the debugger where I can step into a line of code, but choose which of the methods I REALLY want to step into, instead of going through them all until I hit the one I want.
For example, the debugger stops at this line:
String restult = getMyResult(getParam(), buildSomething(), nextOption(x));
I want to hit ctrl+F5 and have a list popup with:
- getMyresult()
- getParam()
- buildSomething()
- nextOption()
and I can select getMyResult and step into that method while skipping the other three.
It sure miss that feature when I am debugging in eclipse, does anyone know if there is something comparable?
I know about the Step Filtering options in Eclipse, but that is not quite what I want.
You can simply put a cursor on method you want and hit Ctrl-F5, so no additional selection needed.
Alternatively you can use Ctrl+Alt-Clik using mouse do do the same.
